what's wrong with Harry Neale?

[MrWizard]

You know what, Bob Cole may not be the brightest guy in the world but HNIC won't be the same without him. I despise Jim Hughson so much and he seems to be the successor.

Bob Cole and Harry Neale make a great team.

Bob Cole and Harry Neale make a great team.

Yah!!! Go Bob and Harry!

I credit Harry Neale for helping me start an essay back in my Uni days. I had such a mental block, and my paper was due on the Monday. I decided to watch HNIC instead of doing the paper.

During the game Neale read off an inspirational quote that totally related to the game and my topic; I wrote it down, worked feverishly through that night, and produced a gem of a paper!

No, I refuse to sign this new petition to have these guys removed.

Go to about 2:15 in this clip, which is Neil's breakaway goal. Classic Bob Cole.

What was the quote?

Bob Cole, in his day was very good - a very good voice (he still has that) too.
Now, his brain cramps and miscalls get in the way.
I like Neale for the fact that he is funny sometimes - comes up with some good one-liners.

I like Hughson....makes me feel like I'm playing a video game AND watching a hockey game at the same time

Exactly why I hate him. I hate the commentary in NHL 06, and I keep waiting for him to use the same stupid lines.

lol - at least in real life it's not pasted together in little phrases. It's annoying when the audio clips lag behind the play....sorta like listening to Cole/Neale

I like Bob and Harry!!! I so want to play NHL2k6!!!

I like Bob and Harry too (as people) but in all honesty Bob is not doing a very good job when he calls games other than the Leafs. It's probably because he has a hard time remembering player names/numbers for the teams he doesn't see very often.
